So life is tough, right? We get so caught up in the day to day, deadlines, babies, households, families, extended families, friends… it can all be overwhelming sometimes. But the key that I’ve found is really remembering to carve time for yourself and center align yourself with some “Me time”. Here’s my three step formula from me to you on how I manage carving out “Me time”: Schedule “Me Time” This may seem silly, or you may be thinking “Girl you don’t have any kids what do you know?” well I’ve helped raise enough kids to know that if you don’t schedule you time, women have a tendency to care for themselves last, which sometimes leave it off the to-do list when the list keeps growing. It’s important for you to schedule, and stick to that schedule. May it be a 5 minute meditation a day, or a one hour…

I spent years with a psychologist and psychiatrist all the while my family continue to ask if it was really even necessary because “It’s all just in your head”. I don’t fault my family; they just…
“Beauty is an expression of health…What most people don’t realize about beauty is that it is about being and feeling healthy.” I was contacted by NeoCell to review their supplements. I’ve been on the lookout for some dietary supplements to take for my hair and skin since I’ve been having so many issues with retaining moisture among other things.
